ellie, I'll spoil the surprise for you; I don't believe in magic. It would be nice, but it just doesn't exist. I'm not saying science and medicine have all the answers, but they do have some solutions for most people. But I don't blame you at all for trying. The opposite, in fact. I think you're pretty brave for putting this out here and discussing it.
And I did recognize your sarcasm for what it was, but I thought that it was important to respond again.
I've been here something like 7 years and seen all the dirty laundry as well as this place at its shining best. TFP is a bit like putty - most folks here are slightly cracked or chipped and they're looking for something. You're likely to find someone who maybe hasn't been through something exactly the same but maybe similar. Or knows someone who did. At the very least, you're going to find that the majority of folks who respond here put thought into their responses before hitting the post button. Those that don't usually don't last too long.
Anyway, I hope I haven't derailed this too much or demoralized you. If nothing else, please keep us updated!
